Overview
The “NIMBUS” series is the second generation of proven CHM 15k ceilometer measuring aerosol height profiles using the LIDAR technique. They determine cloud base heights, penetration depths, mixing layer height and vertical visibility. Within their operating range of up to 15 kilometers (50 000 feet), they reliably detect multiple cloud layers and cirrus clouds. The “NIMBUS” series is equipped with an integrated controller offering improved range resolution and a comfortable web interface
Benefits
- Great measuring range up to 15km (50k ft)
